Customer Reviews

Beautifully written and illustrated

This is the type of book to keep by your bedside to read a passage or two before bedtime. It is both inspirationally written while offering a relaxing and peaceful appreciation of the beauty around us.

The Painted Garden

Very simple book. Easy to understand. Would recommend this book for the beginning watercolorist.

Exquisite

I received this book as a gift for Christmas and I look at it every day. This is a "must" purchase for anyone who has any interest in a garden of any type. It is wonderful to enjoy lounging in the bathtub, while sipping a cup of tea or just enjoying some quiet time. Give this as a gift to your best friend. Better, get this as a gift to yourself. You deserve this beautiful book.

The Painted Garden A Year in Words and Watercolors

This is a MUST have beautiful, as well as enchanting journal to read! I purchased it for two reasons. I have begun a watercolor class and this book is full of beautiful pictures. So I can try for some similar results after I practice, practice, practice. Secondly, after visiting Gloria, a friend with a georgeous flower garden, I want to start my own small flower garden. This book is full of names of flowers along with their pictures, so I can determine what I like most and where it will grow. Already my gardening and painting friend, Gloria has purchased this book after only glancing through my copy. Now I would like to purchase other titles by Mary Woodin. I have discovered she was also into ceramics, as I am into pottery, maybe we are kindred spirits.

A gorgeous book of beautfitul watercolors

Anyone who loves Sara Midda's books will also love this book--beautiful watercolors of the garden at all stages. Can't recommend it highly enough.
